Trump is routinely groomed for Biden and the former president’s mental fitness, and this statement coincides with several books detailing Biden’s cognitive function during his tenure. A White House aide said staff members had quarantined Biden and his faculty allowed the book to “shrink.” It was released on April 8th.

On Thursday, Trump and Meloni said they are confident that the US and Europe can take away their trade deals. Trump announced a 20% tariff on European Union goods that enter the US on April 2, but he announced on April 9 that it would remain at 10% for 90 days to allow the US and the EU to make transactions.
“The trade contract is 100%,” Trump told reporters. “Of course there are trade contracts. They want to make so much. We have trade contracts. I’m totally hoping for that, but it’s going to be fair.”
